Massachusetts Attorney General Maura Healey announced Monday in a news release that her office is suing Jaffarian Volvo Toyota with a complaint filed in Essex Superior Court.
by the state attorney general's office against a car dealer in Haverhill, Massachusetts, claiming that it charged Black and Hispanic customers hundreds more dollars for add-ons than it did for"similarly situated" white customers.
Healey's office alleges that the dealership engaged in"unfair, deceptive, and discriminatory pricing practices against Black and Hispanic customers" when selling them add-on products like paint protection, GAP insurance and remote starters. "Purchasing a vehicle is already a significant financial decision for many families and individuals," AG Healey said in a news release."The last thing they should be worried about is unfairly paying more for a product because of their race or national origin."
The compliant alleges the dealership gave its staff"full discretion to markup the prices of add-on products," and claims that sales history shows the dealership appeared to charge Black and Hispanic customers, on average, an additional $500 and $400 for add-ons respectively, than it did"similarly situated white customers."
